Tubbys Clubhouses
The Tubby Smith Foundation and the Division of Parks and Recreation have teamed up to create Tubbys Clubhouse Computer Education Classrooms in four of Lexingtons Community Centers (Carver, Castlewood, Dunbar and Kenwick). Each center features computer workstations with high-speed internet access for public use. Computer classes are offered to elementary, middle and high school students along with adults and senior citizens. Check with each community center for exact dates and times.
The Dell TechKnow program is a partnership with Fayette County Public Schools and several local businesses that use the Tubbys Clubhouses for special computer education classes that are targeted toward needy middle school students. Classes are held for two nights a week for ten weeks. Students learn how to take a computer apart, put it back together, install hardware and software and learn basic word processing, spreadsheet use, presentation creation, email use and safe internet surfing. For more information on the Dell TechKnow program, call (859) 258-3905.
